In God’s world all that is created is seen as good.  Even in the Hebrew scriptures of Genesis that begin the Bible say that God created all and saw that it was good.  It is hard sometimes to imagine that all is still good.  We think that because of what we have experienced and what we feel that something can become not good.  But how can something reverse its own nature from which it came?  How can we undo what God has done?  I think we can misuse it or take it for granted but I am not sure we are capable of undoing its essence.  Perhaps the key is not in that we undo its essence, but we allow our thinking to see whatever it is as less than its essence.  We pile stories on top of the reality of something or someone existence and think that the stories are the essence of whatever it is and not who or what it is in God’s eyes.  This is why continually I ask God, Help me to see this as You see this. I am acutely aware that my thinking is sometimes stinking.  My prayer for us today is that we be willing to ask God one thing: Show me the good in this (situation, person, idea, etc.).  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
